My little blog is five today!
I can’t believe it, it really seems no time at all since the beginning, yet in a funny way it seems like I have been blogging forever.
I have met so many lovely people through blogging, some of them really good friends now.
Thank you to all you lovely people who drop in here to visit my little space of blogland and leave such kind and encouraging comments, some of you are here every time I post!
There is a section of my WordPress stats that gives me a list of the top seven people who have left the most comments in the last 1000 comments and it’s always the same people, you know who you are, thank you so much for being there.
So to thank you all for joining me here at GRD, I thought it was time for a little giveaway!
I’d like you all to met Verdi, her name comes from the French for green and as she is a little green rabbit and is going to be a giveaway prize for the Green Rabbit blog, I thought her name was a good choice.
If you would like to a chance to win Verdi all you have to do is follow my blog and leave a comment, if you already follow then just leave a comment.
If you would like a second chance then either share the giveaway on your blog using any of the photos in this post or like and share the post on Facebook or Tweet about the giveaway and then come back and leave me another comment telling me you have done so. You can of course do all of these things but it’s just worth one more chance, not everybody has all of these social media and so it keeps it fair.
So you can have two goes at winning her if you wish!
I should point out that Verdi is not a toy and not suitable for children under the age of fourteen.
I’m going to keep the giveaway open until Friday 28th March, midnight GMT.
Thanks again for making my little blog worthwhile!!!
Happy weekend my friends! 🙂
*** The giveaway is now closed, thank you! ***

Hello dear Vivienne,
Congratulations! It’s been a fantastic 5 years (I think I wasn’t on board from the very first post, I jumped in at some point and read all the previous ones at same sitting!) – and it feels like “you would always been there”, I can’t remember days before GRD 🙂 – thank you for brightening my days!
Verdi is precious girl, and I would love to be in the lucky lottery too, fingers crossed 🙂
Happy weekend, dear friend!
Yours,
Mia
Congratulations on blogging for five years….so glad I discovered your blog. What a lovely generous giveaway, I’d love the chance of winning Verdi.

Congrats on your 5th birthday, I am so glad I found you all your rabbits are beautiful I would love to have Miss Verdi she would make a perfect friend for Lolly, keep us smiling V . Liked and shared on F/B xxx
Hi my wife would absolutely adore one of these, she has hankering after one for a long, long time so please, please, please choose me xxxx
Hello my dear Vivienne. Happy 5th blogging birthday…. wow…many congratulations. I love visiting your lovely blog and sharing our blogging world. I am very proud to call you my friend. What a gorgeous new bunny to celebrate the occasion I will keep my fingers crossed. Verdi is such a poppet and her colours just right for spring. We’re just driving down to Southampton in a hail storm! I will put Verdi in my side bar tomorrow as not sure I can do that from my phone. Here’s to more blogging fun and friendship xx
Congrats on your 5th! Miss Verdi is just the most darling bunny!
I follow your blog.
And of course I am a loyal follower 🙂 xx
Although Verdi is beautiful don’t count me in for the giveaway Vivienne as I already have one of your gorgeous bunnies and it seems only fair to let someone else have a chance of owning one. Happy fifth blog anniversary… I wonder how many bunnies you’ve made in those five years.
Winning Verdi would just be the icing on the cake for my birthday today 🙂
Congratulations on your 5 years. Verdi is gorgeous and totally love to win her x
I only found blooming in the last 18 months or so and yours was the first blog I followed, I get so much pleasure finding out the details of each of your rabbit collections, the little details make them so perfect. When we visit craft stores now my daughter and I look at materials and buttons in a different way now. We imagine the little rabbits they would make. We have seen stuff for a sandy bunny, rose bunny. Oh so many. Keep sharing all your treasures with us please. Teresa xx
Happy Anniversary from across the pond! Although I only discovered your blog last November, I spent an entire weekend reading your blog, going back to the very beginning. Every morning since then, I have had a routine of taking Emma (my German Shepherd) out side for a walk, making coffee and settling down to open your blog. Sometimes there is a new entry and I enjoy your cozy conversational style and, of course, the bunnies. On the days that there are no entries, I just remind myself that you have a life, too. Thank you for brightening my mornings with your creativity!
Congratulations on 5 years xx I have recently found you over on Facebook and adore your rabbits and I am waiting in the hope I may be lucky enough to get one one day xxxxx I have liked and shared your giveaway on my Facebook page and added my email to follow this wonderful blog page xxxxxx

Oh Vivienne, the chance to win one of your beautiful bunnies would be dream come true. Having tried and tried in vain to purchase one. Anyway, congratulations on your fifth anniversary.

Congrats on reaching your 5 year blog milestone! Your little Verdi Bunny is just darling!! Love her pretty green dress and soft knit sweater. You are very sweet to share her with one of your readers.

Good luck to everyone hoping for a chance to win, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it’s me!! 🙂
